It ran over what I like to call a "tree urchin". It's a tree which looks like it's covered in sea urchins. If you try to walk through one, it's like moving through concertina wire. If you shoot it, it blows up like a shrapnel bomb. Charger must have done enough damage to it to blow it up.

@@snail1635Those plants got a damage buff in a recent patch. Also, remeber when the eruptor had shrapnel? It could kill a charger with a few shots placed under the belly. The fire volcanoes introduced in the new biome can kill titans, so it's not outlandish that prickly plants are meant to kill chargers. Not to mention, the unexploded hellbombs are an even more obvious example of the devs giving us opportunistic weapons.

@@snail1635 The blue lines are caused by the shrapnel piercing the juicy bits and "ricochet" back into the body for massive damage because it pierces the tissue/organs and hits the armor. Try it out yourself with a laser cannon! You'll see the laser get a blue line when it can't penetrate the armor.
@BalgaBear3 ай бұрын
@@snail1635 Also, normally a charger would hit that prickly plant with a leg or its face, and the hitbox of the shrapnel coming out wouldn't be under the body, where here it got ramped up to be about waist height with a helldiver, thus exposing the underside to the full explosion of thistles! :D Just an observation of a one of a million incident.

It’s literally just one of those spiky plants. not the blue glowing ones, but this not well-known spiky plant and it does make this weird blue laser color. Trust me, I was confused at first but if you hit those they go flying and will kill you. They also damage mechs and cause them to explode. They should honestly remove it because then people make silly explanations and theories like this when in reality all it takes is some game knowledge to understand it’s not illuminate lasers

If you slow it down and look closely, the thorny plant that the charger ran into blew up. The "blue beam" is shooting out from the bush, away from the charger. I'm not sure why it died instantly. Probably some shrapnel shenanigans that we don't quite understand.

2 weeks ago we were playing with a friend and my SSSD fell under the map which meant that it teleported back to the place so he ran for it and at the same time I was defending that place and there was a Bile Titan there and I was on the rise but because of automatic shifting during sprint I accidentally jumped on it and suddenly after that it exploded and I died from it together with the Titan, the strangest thing is that I didn't use any stratagem or anything like that and the Titan itself was untouched and my friend couldn't do it because he ran for the disk

On specific planets there a a specific type of bush that when hit by any form of damage will explode and more often then not kill anything caught within it instantly and when a charger gets shot by anything that can’t penetrate its armour those projectiles will create blue sparks on its armour. So it was probably the plant unfortunately

@1k_SassyАй бұрын
Nope, sorry, you've to watch it in 0.25x: The charger hit that rock frontally & very hard. This led to blue lighting effects in the vicinity of the charger's cranium, shortly sparks appear & finally a beam of light shoots out FROM this region (remark: it appears instantly, i.e. no movement visible, but it seems to lose intensity in an outward bound direction & in regard to the prior lighting effects an outward bound source is more logical). So, maybe the charger hit its head too hard & cracked something "explosive", like in a flint stone? *lol* Don't think ARROWHEAD implemented such a mechanic, but that needs to be tested ;P
